I AM WATER Foundation
Each of us has a story to tell about why we work to protect the world’s oceans... Our blue planet may be divided by continents, but it is united by oceans.
Since 2010, I am Water has provided global opportunities to engage and educate ocean-users with the world beneath the waves in order to understand their personal opportunity to protect the planet.
THEIR MISSION
I AM WATER believes in Ocean Conservation through transformative human ocean experience. Those who have opened their eyes underwater, those who have seen the beauty, the majesty, the great marine creatures of the world beneath the waves will learn to love and to protect!
Their mission is to ignite a movement of blue minds across the planet, to facilitate physical and emotional connections to the aquatic environment, to build understanding of the interdependence of healthy humans and healthy oceans and to influence behaviours to protect our global seas.
They feel especially passionate about working with under-resourced coastal communities where, despite living walking distance to the shoreline, we often find young people who have never seen the world just beneath the waves.
I AM WATER gives visibility to the fact that humankind cannot survive without nature and nature cannot survive unless we radically change our behaviour.
